Need for Speed marks an exciting return to the great car culture films of the 1960s and ’70s, tapping into what makes the American myth of the open road so appealing. The story chronicles a near-impossible cross-country journey for our heroes—one that begins as a mission for revenge, but proves to be one of redemption.

• You might not be able to tell from this video, but Bryan Cranston took the stage in Heisnberg cosplay! Trademark green button down, khakis, and an amazing/creepy Heisenberg mask:

• Cranston took the opportunity walk the floor in the mask, tried to use a higher voice to pretend like he was a fan who made the mask. "So it was fun meeting you, and you met me." 

• Chris Hardwick will host TALKING BAD immediately following each of the final 8 episodes.
• Regarding the differences between TALKING DEAD and TALKING BAD: "I understand that tonally the shows are different, so I will give 'Talking Bad' the respect that 'Breaking Bad' deserves," he says. He says the show will be "more of a retrospective of the series," since it didn't exist in earlier seasons.

• Cranston thinks anyone can become a Walter White. "Under the right circumstances — desperation, need greed, depression — you push those buttons at the right time, and anyone can become dangerous. And that's what happened to Walter White."

• What's it like to shoot some particularly dark scenes: Aaron Paul says while the show is dark, "The set is very loose and very comical," because of Cranston. "He's the most professional person I've ever worked with, but also the most immature man I've ever experienced."

• RJ Mitte started the show at 14 years old and is turning 21 next month: "Most people had high school, I had 'Breaking Bad.'"

• Norris on Hank: "He's the one guy — his conscience won't allow him to do the wrong thing, to his detriment. He could've lied about beating up Jesse Pinkman and avoided getting his head almost cut off by a couple of Mexican dudes, but he didn't. I think he's that guy."

• ALL OF SAUL'S LINES ARE SCRIPTED! Just great writing and great delivery.
•  Odenkirk on Saul: "The key to Saul, and Vince has said it to me, and I've had fans say it, is he's good at what he does. That's the thing. You see a lot of boobs on TV, they're always fun to laugh at... but in the case of Saul, he's funny, and yet he actually gets stuff done."

• Gilligan wasn't familiar with Cranston's work on Malcolm in the Middle. Regarding casting comedic actors, Gilligan says "Comedy is a lot harder to do than drama," he explains. "I would hire a comedian every day of the week to play a dramatic part. If they have the chops to play comedy... they can certainly do drama, it seems to me."

• Walter White is the Evil Juice Box Man. How did Walter poison Brock? Gilligan says the writers would always tell the story of "the Evil Juice Box Man. The way we worked it out on our timeline is he had just enough time to do it, but it would've been very tricky indeed." They figured he crushed the poison up, stuck it in a juice box, and got into Brock's school. "That's our inner story, the writers and I, for how it happened. It would've been very tricky timing, but he was a motivated individual at that point."

• Jane's Death. The original version of the script had Walt pushing Jane onto her back when she started choking to be sure she died. AMC and Sony gave Gilligan a note that this was too quick for an act that egregious to happen. Vince came up with a different plan, and they worked it out on the set, where Walt jostling Jesse would accidentally put Jane on her back. "The culpable moment for Walt is when he recognizes the girl could die, and what does he do then?" He loved the way the note from the network and studio made the scene better.

•  What's Walter White's motivation coming into the last half of season 5? Cranston: "Empire. He's in the empire business. His ego is peaking. He's never felt this before in his life. To have this kind of power as an adult, he's never ever had that. And it got to him. He succumbed to it like it was an aphrodisiac." 

• Vince Gilligan on the show's finale: "...I am satisfied by the ending. I hope you will be, too. Everyone in front of the lens and behind it is very happy with it."
